"The seal Waterworks put between my driveway and my garage floor makes the driveway appear much more finished. I didn't know how unfinished it looked before I hired Waterworks. It looks much better now. My only concern is that the "filler" material is still soft 3 days later. I need to call the company to find out if that is a problem or no. They were also fast. The job was completed in about an hour."

"We thought we needed foundation work. They not only told us that was incorrect. They directed us to a structural engineer who would be able to help us. No charge. Most appreciated."

"I had originally expressed interest in MidAmerica Basement (MAB) Systems upon attending a home improvement convention in Iowa City, IA. I briefly discussed the need to level the floors to my Cedar Rapids home and left them my contact information. Afterwards, I was contacted by a System Design Specialist named Wes Glasgow. Wes thoroughly assessed the work needing to be performed to the old limestone basement of my home in a professional and straightforward manner. He originally quoted me a price to install floor jacks that was considerably lower, but after further inspection, we both agreed that my home would need steel beams to reinforce my basement support floor framing. I then questioned whether MAB had flooring products available that could be used in my 1st floor laundry room area. He showed me a product called Thermal Dry Tile Flooring; which is typically used for basement floor covering. The flooring complimented my kitchen flooring so well, that I decided to have the product installed. The Sunday prior to the project start date, Wes went above and beyond his 'salesman' role by assisting me in the temporary removal/relocation of my washer, dryer, and a large metal shelving unit. He also offered and assisted me in relocating some items in my basement, in preparation of the work to be performed. Once I finish the trim work and repainting in the laundry room, Wes instructed me to call him again to move back and hook up my laundry room appliances. I am sincerely grateful and humbled, because I have a disability and live alone with limited access to assistance and outside resources. The MAB Construction Team arrived at my house on 6/25/18 shortly after the noon hour; which was a bit later than scheduled. However, they immediately started to work after having been properly introduced to myself and the project areas of my home. The Team consisted of the Project Leader Dillion Heard and crew member Cory for the first 2 days. They worked tirelessly hammering and digging to manually remove concrete, sand and dirt from my basement floor by the bucketful; in order to install 10 Smart Jack XTs. Mind you, my basement does not have any windows, thus, they had to individually carry each filled bucket up a very narrow stairway passage. Props to them both for having maintained courtesy, pleasant attitudes and a sense of humor with me through it all. Dillion kept me well entertained, informed, and updated to each stage of the project; which allowed me the opportunity to purchase a few necessary items before installing the laundry room tile flooring. On the 3rd day of my project, I was introduced to another crewman named Tyler. The 3 of them successfully placed the steel beams, 10 floor jacks and raised them to the necessary heights to help level out the 1st story floors of my house. They also started the tiling and discovered that they were shorted some necessary materials. On the final day of the project, the 3 man crew cemented in the jacks and insulated the outer perimeter of my basement beams with a spray foam product; while I was at work. Despite the unplanned setback in materials, they had traveled back to Davenport to get the missing supplies and returned back to my home by the time I was off work. They then tediously completed the installation of my tile flooring for the laundry room. I had mentioned to Dillion that a small storage area door had to be raised and resized, because it slightly rubbed against the new tile. He painstakingly worked on the door and its latch, until it fit to my satisfaction. It all honestly now looks fabulous! I would 100% recommend MAB Systems for those needing the professional services they provide. Their employees have consistently demonstrated their willingness to go the extra mile for job completion and customer satisfaction. They have renewed an appreciation for my home and their services will allow me to move forward on other projects that were on hold; due to my unlevel floors. I cannot thank them enough. MAB Systems rocks!!!! : )"

"We had a few hiccups due to bad planning on the salesman's part, but the foreman Dillon and his crew were amazing. I am having them come back to install a second pump for our system. The foreman saved the day and went above and beyond the call of duty. I will recommend them in the future. It is worth every penny we spent on it."

"It was better than iIexpected. They cleaned up. They were courteous. The price was reasonable."

"This is the company to go to for anything related to basements. Our basement walls were bowing and we were getting water in the basement. They installed steel beams to stop the movement of the walls and put in a drainage system. They were great to work with, and we couldn't be happier with the quality of the work. They saved the value of our home!"

"Fine, Jack was quite nice to deal with, arrived on time after hours to fit our (7 pm) schedule. He came fully prepared with his license, insurance paperwork, references, etc. Looked at our project, came up with estimate on the spot. He also offered us a 10 percent discount to do both windows at the same time as we were undecided as to do one or two. The price above reflects that discount. He was very good about following up with us a few days later and answering any questions. In the end we found a number of lower bids (those did not include the dirt haul away, so that might be important to some) and we chose one of those."

"Expert House Movers brought a crew of 6-8 & came in late August 2013 to start the process of raising & moving the house.  My husband had done all the prep work of disconnecting the utilities & removing the furnace, etc. They dug access ramps to the old foundation/basement with bobcats.  They poked good sized holes around the foundation so they could put in steel beams and jack up the house.  Our foundation was from 1917 & built from old creek gravel cement, so it was pretty tough.  It took three & half days to jack the house & move it over the driveway.  It seemed really fast to me.  The only thing to fall in the house was a picture off the piano.  We still had access to the house through a tall ladder to get clothes, etc. that we needed. <br /> We took over the process of arranging excavation, concrete pouring, and carpenters with more local contractors.  Expert does have concrete people & others they use in the St Louis area that know exactly the requirements needed for the new foundation. <br /> After the basement was poured & cured (curing takes about 3-4 weeks), Expert returned in October 2013 to move & set the house.  They had been in contact with the concrete man for specifications, but there were no slots for the beams when setting the house down.  A concrete worker had to come & cut those slots.  We had a carpenter on hand to finish the sill installment & make sure the sills for the permanent beams was correct & set the support posts in the basement.  We also had a friend's tractor help Expert's bobcat pull the house back over the foundation.  While all this was going on, Expert was jacking and moving supports & placing slider beams & raising & lowering the house.  The process was complete in about 2 1/2 days with care & precision.  Some of the cracks in our house even disappeared.  Great job guys. <br /> Our carpenters returned to build a staircase & some other requirements.  We are working on re-connecting utilities & returning the furnace, water heater, etc. to the new basement.  We plan to move back into the house in the first week or so in November 2013.  It's been a long process, but well worth it.  Made possible by Expert House Movers! <br />"
